Chapter 206 A Mismatched Couple (Part 2)
Liu Ruxuan was completely bewildered. How did she fall into a tiger's den after just escaping a wolf's den?
Before I could even think of a way to refuse, I heard two voices at the same time:
"no!"
"Can't!"
Chu Yin and Liu Wenhao said in unison.
If Liu Ruxuan were to be betrothed, not only would their fates be roughly the same, but Dugu Juechen might even raze the palace to the ground in a fit of rage...
As Chu Yin and Liu Wenhao thought of this, they both felt a chill run down their spines.
The others were slightly taken aback. When did these two become so united?
The Empress Dowager glanced at Chu Yin, then at Liu Wenhao. She naturally recognized Chu Yin, but as for this other person, she asked, "Who are you? Why are you objecting?"
Liu Wenhao bowed slightly: "Your Majesty, I am Liu Wenhao, son of General Liu, and also Xuanmei's elder brother."
The Empress Dowager nodded slightly, and seeing that Chu Yin objected, she couldn't help but have some more thoughts in her mind: "Oh, then why does Yin'er object? Could it be that you and Ru Xuan, hmm?"
"Mother, you are overthinking it. Ruxuan and I have no special relationship; we are just friends," Chu Yin said.
Chu Yi was puzzled: "If you two have no relationship, then why are you objecting?"
……
Yes, why should we object?
Should we publicly declare that Liu Ruxuan is Dugu Juechen's person?
If you say that, probably no one will believe it, because the rules of the Tianling Sect clearly stipulate that the sect leader cannot marry.
Chu Yin thought to himself.
"In short, Ruxuan cannot be betrothed to His Highness the Crown Prince," Chu Yin said resolutely.
"Why not? Neither of them are married." Chu Wenshao couldn't sit still any longer; he had fallen in love with Liu Ruxuan at first sight.
"Yes, Wenshao is right. Both are unmarried, so why can't they get married? Ruxuan, what do you think?" The Empress Dowager threw the problem to Liu Ruxuan.
"Your Majesty, please don't make things difficult for everyone anymore. Actually, I already have someone I love," Liu Ruxuan said with a sigh.
The Empress Dowager persisted: "Whose son is he? Tell me so I can see if he is worthy of Ruxuan."
"Your Majesty, please don't ask anymore. No matter what his or her status is, as long as it's him, Ruxuan has made up her mind." Liu Ruxuan said, her eyes brimming with happiness.
Seeing Liu Ruxuan like this, the Empress Dowager didn't want to make things difficult for her. However, she still felt a little sorry for her grandson, as such a good girl had suddenly become someone else's daughter.
"Alright, I won't ask any further. Ruxuan, if you ever encounter any difficulties in the future, just come to me, and I'll take care of it for you!" the Empress said with a smile.
Liu Ruxuan smiled and said, "Ruxuan thanks the Empress Dowager."
"Sigh~ What's with all this 'Ruxuan' stuff? You're not much older than my grandson, so just call me Grandmother." The Empress Dowager was quite pleased with her idea. Since she couldn't be her granddaughter-in-law, taking her in as her goddaughter wouldn't be bad either.
Chu Yi, Chu Yin, and Chu Wenshao were so flustered that they almost choked on their own saliva.
"Mother, this is absolutely unacceptable! Mother, even the recognition of a goddaughter requires the consent of all civil and military officials. How can you decide this on your own? Let's discuss this later!" Chu Yi hurriedly stepped forward and said. He didn't know Liu Ruxuan's temperament or personality; how could she so casually recognize a goddaughter?
Chu Yin felt like punching someone after hearing that!
Liu Ruxuan's backer is the leader of the Tianling Sect. If Liu Ruxuan is included in the royal family, it will be equivalent to having the Tianling Sect as a backer. In that case, who would dare to have any disloyal thoughts?
